Report on rural proofing (RP): methodological aspects and implications for stakeholders

The report will be structured into five sections: a) the rural proofing’s role in the current European Rural Action Plan and Rural Pact; b) approaches and methods of RP in the different countries (a short survey); c) the functions that RP can be play at sub-regional/territorial level and which use can be proposed in the living laboratories; d) operational implications in terms of data and information sources.
